A member asked:
Does having idiopathic intracranial hypertension increase your risk of subdural hemotoma if you hit your head?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really!: benign intracranial hypertension (pseudo tumor ) can cause headaches and the most important side effect is visual problems when treatments such as drugs or even shunts may be necessary
